especially when it’s about your life.
We are surrounded by people chasing luxury cars, big houses, fancy vacations, and 6+ figures in bank accounts.
Everyone is working hard to build a first-class lifestyle.
Nothing wrong with that.
However, no matter how impressive this lifestyle looks on the outside, it can’t guarantee your happiness and well-being.
Let me explain with a real-life observation.
In my hometown, there is a famous doctor. He owns a successful and possibly the most popular hospital in town. Some big shot businesspersons and politicians have also invested in that hospital.
Obviously, this doctor is super rich.
He bought a Range Rover at least 10 years before someone else bought another in the city. The spectacular thing about his expensive car is that it still looks brand new while the ones bought years later have started losing luster.
Do you know why? Because he never takes it out for a drive.
People have seen his shining blue car parked in front of his hospital, but nobody has ever seen it move.
He simply doesn’t have the time to drive it.
A first-class lifestyle is owning expensive things, and a bad quality of life is never having the time to use those.
If affording your lifestyle costs you the time you need to focus on health, relationships, and fulfilling experiences, you are living a terrible life.
A first-class lifestyle focuses on how others perceive you while a first-class quality of life is all about how you feel inside.
When you focus on the quality of your life, you prioritize relaxation, hobbies, and self-care over the material aspects such as wealth, possessions, and status symbols.
Living a life with purpose and gratitude gives you deeper fulfilment because you constantly focus on what truly matters to you.
What do you think?
Are there any areas in your life where you feel you could focus more on quality rather than lifestyle?
